So.. anyone in here with ferrets? :P
How do you keep them, what do they eat, do they bite a lot, are they house trained etc,..I wanna know all about your ferrets and how they live :P

I've just become a proud ferret owner to a 3 months old kit.. had him a few das now and he's really testing me xD
I've gotten help and read a lot about these animals before I got him, of course, but it could be fun to hear about other ferrets :)

Always keep your head up, but be careful to keep your nose at a friendly level.

I used to have a a ferret but he died :(

They tend to be very social so if you can, a 2nd ferret would be greatly appreciated by your fuzzy friend. They like big airy wire cages, with stuff to play with, sleep in, hammocks, etc.

They eat ferret food ;] In local pet shop.

Herbie never bit. But that's just him. I have no clue about your youngin'.

But they definetely like stuff to burrow down in. Like a heavy comforter or something.

Most people are like Slinkies; they serve no real purpose, but they bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on for dear life.

If I get a second ferret right now, I'll have a hell housetraining and bite training them :P
He has the entire apartment and hammocks and beddings in different places (he's snoozing behind the TV now where he has a blanket, and before ththe played with my bedsheets ;)
Our petstores don't sell ferret food :( I have to buy it online..

:P So you had a ferret..hehe, you're always the first to answer all my threads xD

I have a ferret and we just buy ferret food from the local pet store, but he gets out and eats the cat's food too. The only problem we have with our ferret is that we can't potty train him. I'm not sure if that happens with all ferrets or just ours, but he goes potty in all the corners and it's a huge pain in the but to clean up.
